Capturing 3D Objects with Precision

Fine art reproduction isn’t limited to flat artworks; it extends to 3D objects like sculptures, pottery, and decorative arts. These objects are often photographed in studios, galleries, or exhibition halls, using carefully designed lighting setups that highlight their unique textures and details. Lighting options range from flash-based systems to continuous or natural daylight, tailored to meet the curator’s specific requirements.
For optimal results, medium format camera solutions, such as the Phase One XF, deliver unmatched resolution and detail. These systems, equipped with the highest-resolution sensors available, ensure the fastest and most accurate workflows, whether you’re capturing intricate 3D objects or large flat artworks.
